Ingredients

  • 2 ounces dark rum
  • 2 ounces pineapple juice
  • 1/2 ounces orgeat or simple syrup
  • 1/2 ounces lime juice
  • 1/4 ounce peach liqueur
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters optional
  • Garnish with brûléed lemon slice

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients (except lemon) in a cocktail shaker with plenty of ice.
  • Shake vigorously and double strain into a chilled coupe. Garnish with brûléed lemon slice.

Brûléed lemon

  • Sprinkle a thinly sliced lemon wheel or wedge with a little sugar on both sides and brûlée with a kitchen torch until golden and starting to char. It adds smokey citrusy notes and serves as a fancy candied garnish. You can also achieve this by placing a lemon slice on a baking sheet 5 inches from the broiler source. The process takes about 1-2 minutes and will caramelize the outside of the lemon.

Notes

Angostura bitters are optional but adds spicy nutmeg notes and create a more well-balanced cocktail.
